Question

how does the acceleration due to gravity varies with altitude​

Answer 1

Explanation:

• First, there is the variation of gravity with latitude that you alluded to: you weigh about 0.5% more at the poles than on the equator. ... Second, gravity does indeed change with altitude. The gravitational force above the Earth's surface is proportional to 1/R2, where R is your distance from the center of the Earth.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

as altitude increases acceleration due to gravity decreases

g' = g [ 1 - 2h/R ]

where g' - new acceleration due to gravity

          h - height of altitude

          R - radius of the earth

hope i helped u !
